Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Qiushi Guo, Ryoto Sekine, Luis Ledezma, Rajveer Nehra, Devin J. Dean | Summary: Optical nonlinear functions are crucial for various applications in integrated photonics, such as all-optical information processing, photonic neural networks and on-chip ultrafast light sources. Due to the weak nonlinearities in most integrated photonic platforms, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Arnold Kriegstein | Authors: Brian R Herb, Hannah J Glover, Aparna Bhaduri, Carlo Colantuoni, Tracy L Bale, Kimberly Siletti, Sten Linnarsson, Rebecca D Hodge, Ed Lein, Arnold Kriegstein, Claudia Doege and Seth A Ament | Summary: Abstract The development and diversity of neuronal subtypes in the human hypothalamus has been insufficiently characterized. We […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Vijay Varma, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Maximiliano Isi, Will M. Farr, Salvatore Vitale | Summary: Binary black hole spin measurements from gravitational wave observations can reveal the binary’s evolutionary history. In particular, the spin orientations of the component black holes within the orbital plane, $phi_1$ and $phi_2$, can be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Salvatore Vitale | First 5 Authors: Vijay Varma, Maximiliano Isi, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Will M. Farr, Salvatore Vitale | Summary: Binary black hole spins are among the key observables for gravitational wave astronomy. Among the spin parameters, their orientations within the orbital plane, $phi_1$, $phi_2$ and $Delta phi=phi_1-phi_2$, are critical for understanding the prevalence […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrei Faraon | First 5 Authors: Conner Ballew, Gregory Roberts, Tianzhe Zheng, Andrei Faraon, | Summary: Photonic topology optimization is a technique used to find the electric permittivity distribution of a device that optimizes an electromagnetic figure-of-merit. Two common techniques are used: continuous density-based optimizations that optimize a grey-scale permittivity defined over a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Oskar Painter | First 5 Authors: Harald Putterman, Joseph Iverson, Qian Xu, Liang Jiang, Oskar Painter | Summary: Protected qubits such as the 0-$pi$ qubit, and bosonic qubits including cat qubits and GKP qubits offer advantages for fault-tolerance. Some of these protected qubits (e.g., 0-$pi$ qubit and Kerr cat qubit) are stabilized by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Oskar Painter | First 5 Authors: Harald Putterman, Joseph Iverson, Qian Xu, Liang Jiang, Oskar Painter | Summary: Biased-noise qubits are a promising candidate for realizing hardware efficient fault-tolerant quantum computing. One promising biased-noise qubit is the Kerr cat qubit, which has recently been demonstrated experimentally. Despite various unique advantages of Kerr cat […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gordan Krnjaic | First 5 Authors: Ian Holst, Dan Hooper, Gordan Krnjaic, , | Summary: The long-standing $4.2 , sigma$ muon $g-2$ anomaly may be the result of a new particle species which could also couple to dark matter and mediate its annihilations in the early universe. In models where both muons and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Susan E. Clark | First 5 Authors: Enrique Lopez-Rodriguez, Rainer Beck, Susan E. Clark, Annie Hughes, Alejandro S. Borlaff | Summary: Galactic bars are frequent in disk galaxies and they may support the transfer of matter towards the central engine of active nuclei. The barred galaxy NGC 1097 has magnetic forces controlling the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Pau Amaro Seoane | First 5 Authors: Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda, Stanislav Babak, Christopher P. L. Berry, Emanuele Berti | Summary: The science objectives of the LISA mission have been defined under the implicit assumption of a 4 yr continuous data stream. Based on the performance of LISA Pathfinder, it is […]
